Blogging Break & Giveaway

Hello readers, I (Rachel) have been experiencing a little bit of blogger burnout so I've decided to take the rest of the month off. Jasprit will be holding down the fort while I'm away and I'm sure she has some wonderful reviews and posts you won't want to miss.  I do have a couple of giveaways scheduled during the month and I'm leaving you with an international giveaway now: A $10 book spending spree at US Amazon or US Barnes & Noble or up to $10 at The Book Depository.  Winner's choice.
I hope everyone has a lovely holiday season!  





a Rafflecopter giveaway

    First off, I'm sad that you will be absent this month, but I hope to see you back with enthusiasm! I have so many books I need to read over break but one of them is going to Dragonfly in Amber by Diana Gabaldon. I need to finish that series (or at least what is out lol)

    I'm currently reading "You and Everything After" but I want to read Battle Angel (Last part of The Immortal City) by Scott Speer too. As the least. I'm writing my final exam paper too so I don't have that much time to read for fun. :/
